The Life of the Concubine of the System

Chapter 46

An Xiuyuan is about to give birth, and it is reasonable for Emperor Yong Ye to come to visit.But when Emperor Yongye saw An Xiuyuan rubbing his stomach and smiling, he couldn't help thinking of another pregnant woman in the palace.He suddenly wanted to see that little woman who could act coquettishly and lose her temper, instead of the docile woman in front of him who kept saying that everything was fine.Ruxue would complain to him about how many snacks he ate today, what kind of things he did today, the parents were very short and trivial, but it was surprisingly warm.

As for An Xiuyuan in front of him, she would only respond to his questions docilely, and even a topic had to be carefully thought out for a long time before she could speak it out.

Emperor Yongye didn't stay in An Xiuyuan's palace for a long time, he asked An Xiuyuan a few words, and left.

An Xiuyuan looked at the back of Emperor Yong Ye leaving, although there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he was not feeling well in his heart.Just because she thought of another so-called pregnant woman in the palace—Concubine Yuegui.It turned out that she was the only one in the palace who was pregnant with the emperor's heir, and everyone was staring at her belly. She was a little afraid that someone would harm her, but at the same time she was a little faintly proud.

This Concubine Yue is a target she found to serve as a shield for her and her stomach, but when this target took everyone's attention away, she should have been happy, why did she feel a little bit in her heart? A faint sense of jealousy?
They were also pregnant, but Concubine Yuegui, a concubine from a humble background, was able to sit on an equal footing with her, and even slightly overwhelmed her, all because of the man who was leaving in front of her.

With the support of the palace servants, An Xiuyuan slowly stood up, with a smile still on the corner of her mouth.

It doesn't matter, so what if you are being favored?You will always have a day when you are as beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as water, and this concubine still has this precious prince in my belly.

Hmph, fakes are fake, when your three-month period expires and your happy pulse disappears, the baby in my concubine's belly will be born soon, at that time, who will be the most beautiful woman in the palace?
"Huang Ying, how are you doing what I ordered you to do?"

Huang Ying lowered her head and replied: "Returning to the words of Empress Xiuyuan, Huang Ying arranged for a few palace daughters to accidentally tell the matter when the emperor came."

The arc of An Xiuyuan's mouth gradually widened, she smiled triumphantly, Concubine Yuegui?Let's see if you can still spoil the harem after the "false pregnancy" incident?This concubine's arrangement this time is to leave a rift between you and the emperor. Once there is a rift, will the emperor still love you even more with his temperament?

"Huang Ying, you grew up with this concubine, and you have handled this matter so beautifully this time, I will not treat you badly." An Xiuyuan looked at Huang Ying, who was bowing her knees, and smiled.

Although Xin Huangli, who was the most eye-catching, was jealous of Huang Ying's favor in front of An Xiuyuan, she still joked with Huang Ying with a smile on her face, and flattered the empress Xiuyuan in front of her with good words.

"Sister Huang Ying, look at how well Mistress Xiuyuan treats you. Let me tell you, our maidservant, our Mistress Xiuyuan is the most nostalgic master in this palace. Sister Huang Ying, we will serve Mistress Xiuyuan more wholeheartedly in the future. .”

An Xiuyuan was delighted by Huang Li's words, and she smiled even more: "Look at your sweet mouth, in the future, this concubine will also benefit from you."

After hearing this, Huang Li spouted out a string of flattering words.

Huang Ying just kept silent and didn't speak. She looked at the harmonious scene of the master and servant's happy family in front of her. She was not infected by the seemingly cheerful atmosphere. Instead, she felt chills in her heart.Huang Li was once more valued by Empress Xiuyuan than her, but it wasn't long before she was easily replaced by the new "Huang Li".Then will she do the same? No, she has to do something.She can't die, she has to live better for Huang Li's sake.

Emperor Yongye thought of Yin Ruxue when he visited An Xiuyuan, and after leaving An Xiuyuan's palace gate, he naturally headed towards Zhaoyue Palace.

Xin Quan ordered the little eunuchs to investigate the news heard at An Xiuyuan's door, and the little eunuchs moved quickly.It was related to the concubine Yuegui, who is currently in the emperor's heart, Xin Quan did not dare to neglect, as soon as he got the news, he reported it to the emperor.

After all, the eunuchs are of low status, and some things are not easy to ask directly, so this matter is probably superficial, only that there are rumors in the palace recently, to the effect that Concubine Yue Gui lied, but in fact she is not pregnant thing.

Emperor Yongye's original intention was to check the latest rumors in the palace, as for who was behind the rumors, he really didn't expect to find out with these little eunuchs.

Emperor Yongye didn't take it seriously after hearing Xin Quan explain the matter clearly.

That's right, he was clear about the fake pregnancy herb back then, and he also knew who gave the medicine.He probably had some ideas about who provoked it this time, but this matter was really subtle.What made him curious was, what role did the concubines in the harem play in this incident?
But the most important thing right now is not these, but...

Emperor Yongye looked at the plaque above his head that said "Zhaoyue Palace" and smiled slightly, and stepped into the palace gate.

"Your Majesty, what a coincidence that you came here. Look, the pea yellow freshly prepared in the small kitchen is delicious and sweet." Ruxue, who was sitting on the couch, eating happily, saw the Emperor coming in, took He started to greet him with the half-bitten pea yellow in his hand.

Emperor Yongye looked at the beauty in front of him with a smile like a flower, and swallowed the yellow pea in the beauty's hand.

"Well, it tastes good."

Yin Ruxue was a little dumbfounded, her fingers seemed to still have the warmth from the touch of Emperor Yong Ye's tongue just now.Her face slowly turned red, and after a while it was like the crimson of a burning cloud spreading across the sky.

She was a little annoyed: "Your Majesty, you are playing tricks."

Emperor Yongye was in a good mood when he saw the shy side of the beauty opposite, and began to tease her.

"Oh, how did I mess it up?"

Yin Ruxue looked at the fingers in front of her eyes, and shy away from speaking.

Emperor Yongye was happy in his heart, the dullness he felt at An Xiuyuan's place just now would not be here at all, there was finally a place for him to feel comfortable in this palace.

"How is today?"

"Great."

Yin Ruxue sat down on the couch with Emperor Yongye, she looked at the yellow peas on the small table, happily twisted a piece of yellow peas with her hands, and started to eat again.

Seeing the little woman's good appetite, Emperor Yongye also nodded.

"It looks fine to me."

Yin Ruxue raised her head, seemingly puzzled, but at the same time, a little proud.

"Your Majesty, does my complexion look good?"

Emperor Yongye shook his head, Yin Ruxue became even more puzzled.

"I see, your appetite has been very good recently. You don't like to eat like before, but you only eat a little bit of everything." Emperor Yongye pointedly glanced at the plate that was still full of pea yellow just now but is now empty. Dim sum plate.

Yin Ruxue didn't blush at all, and while talking, she beckoned to Cherry, who was waiting on the side, to exchange for a plate of snacks.

"Your Majesty, I promise, it's not that I'm greedy. It's that the baby wants to eat. There are also cherries. Go to the small kitchen and bring out a bowl of snacks."

When Cherry heard the order, she happily went out to the small kitchen to get some snacks.

Emperor Yong Ye looked at the sincere eyes of the little woman in front of him and her flat belly which was still two months pregnant, and smiled helplessly, that's right, being able to eat is a blessing.

"I'll find you another cook."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yin Ruxue looked very happy.

"Also, don't bother with any rumors in the palace recently. I will take care of everything." Emperor Yong Ye suddenly changed from the cook to another topic.

Yin Ruxue was still thinking about what kind of cook she wanted, but Emperor Yongye suddenly brought up an irrelevant topic, and took the conversation casually.

"Is the emperor talking about false pregnancy rumors? Oh, I didn't intend to pay attention to it."

"Aren't you worried?"

"There's nothing to worry about. It's not a real thing. Besides, Your Majesty said you would handle it."

Emperor Yong Ye watched the expression of the little woman in front of him change from careless to seeming to think of something, and then heard an exclamation:
"Your Majesty, I've been deliberating. You'd better find me a cook who is the best at making dim sum. That's the best."

Emperor Yong Ye was a little taken aback by the state of the little woman in front of him not playing cards according to common sense.

"You've been thinking about it for a long time, and that's what you're thinking about?"

"That's right, otherwise I'm thinking hard about something." Yin Ruxue looked at Emperor Yong Ye strangely.

Emperor Yongye laughed dumbfounded, and rubbed Ruxue's hair.

Yin Ruxue was really confused at this moment.

"System, isn't what I thought just now wrong?"

The system is heartbroken: "Food, foodie, you're usually not very smart. Why do you become confused when you encounter foodies?"

Yin Ruxue blushed a little, saying that she really seemed to have this problem.

Today is the first day of the new year, Emperor Yongye only sat in Zhaoyue Palace for a while, and then went to the Queen's Fengzao Palace.

When having dinner, the empress used the serving chopsticks to pick up a chopstick of seafood and put it on the plate in front of Emperor Yongye.

"Your Majesty, the river fish delivered from the Imperial Dining Room today is not bad, and it tastes fresh."

Emperor Yongye glanced at the queen, and did not refute the queen's face.He picked up the river fresh food with chopsticks, tasted it, and nodded: "This river fresh food is pretty good."

With a happy smile on her face, the queen picked up a few chopsticks of freshwater fish with her serving chopsticks and put them on the dishes in front of Emperor Yong Ye.However, she didn't realize that this time she caught Hexian Yongye Emperor and didn't touch him at all.

After the dinner was over, Emperor Yong Ye and the Empress sat on the couch to digest.

"In the past few days, the concubines in the harem have been very peaceful, and there have been no quarrels. Maybe it's because the weather has turned cold recently, and everyone's previously depressed mood has eased." The queen gossiped.

Emperor Yongye praised in a tone of praise: "Empress, you have always managed the harem very well."

When the queen heard this, she was naturally happy, but before she could say her modest words, she suddenly heard the emperor's words change in front of her.

"However, I have heard that rumors have been raging in this palace recently."
